When the battery power is low, charge your battery by connecting your computer to ac power.
The battery is fully charged in about two to four hours. The actual charging time depends on the battery
capacity, the physical environment, and whether you are using the computer.
Battery charging is also affected by its temperature. The recommended temperature range for charging the
battery is between 10°C (50°F) and 35°C (95°F).
Note: To maximize the life of the battery, the computer does not start recharging the battery if the remaining
power is greater than 95%.
